a question on '50s buckes
Greetings,
I'm new to the forum but have been a regular reader of your interesting posts for some months now as they have been a great resource to learn more about the Memovox series. I've finally found a nice JLC one dating back to the early '50s so would like to add a correct bucke.
Am I right in understanding that those with the applied logo are from later on, approx. the '60?
This is one that I found [URL=http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/28/jlcfibbiainoxlogoriliev.jpg/]

This one is interesting
I did some research on vintage IWC buckles recently and found the same design marked IWC where the JLC logo is on your sample. I think to remember that I also came across another brand using this type of buckle. Am I wrong to assume that this might have b...
Hi Martin!
Like everything else the design of buckles has followed the fashion and been very much the same for many of the major brands during the history. The style that Nicolas is showing was used by several other brands including IWC. Same with the applyed logo b...
Thanks Blomman

Yes, I fear. But I am sure you will find the right one for your buckle!
And vice versa... Best, Nicolas
Original Strap and buckle ~1969
Watch is 14k White Gold, buckle looks steel. Strap and buckle are original to the watch....
i have also seen this type of buckle before...
... i think yours must date earlier than mine?! thanks, pitpro stefan
Interesting topic, Stefan!
JLC was using several different buckles during the 60's, 70's and 80's. Here are some of mine - the first is pre 1960 unsigned. Original starps are also a nice detail! What's common with all I have found so far is that they are very thin. Not thick, built...
Wow, you got the last one from Greg???
You were faster than me, on this one! Not sure the first buckle you show are from the Pre 60ies, which would mean correct for the Geophysic and Parking... Clavi posted something about that. I will try to find his answer... Best, Nicolas.
The first one come with the Memo Paring in Gold...
Including original strap! Best Blomman PS. Yes, I am faster than you!
Nico, i am not the only one got thing faster than you ;-)
... Blomman also beat you fast, LOL stefan
another eye-opener for me, Blomman...
... wow, you have also collected ladies watches plus ladies strap and buckles... very nice collection indeed! in your first pic, the pre 60s unsigned buckle looks very interesting to me. its width looks quite large than that posted by pitpro. his buckle i...
Futurematic buckle
Can anybody share a picture of a correct buckle for Futurematic (US version) made in 1954? I am searching for my watch - 16mm in gold.
